| No more than 5 days after the events of season 2, we meet Abhay again as he attempts to solve the case of 11 people who have gone missing from the highways connecting NCR to the capitals of neighboring states. He apprehends a gang of thugs who confess to 6 out of the 11 cases but 5 remain unsolved. We meet the people responsible for those, a young couple, Kabir and Harleen, who are social media influencers in front of the world but are heinous thrill-seeking murderers away from the cameras. As Abhay continues to investigate the case, it is revealed that Abhay acquired the information about that case from Sonam, whom he has kept captive. Khushboo in the meantime digs into Natasha's death. We end the episode with a tease for the Season's big bad, Mrtyu, as a woman kills her infant following his instructions. | |||||

| Khushboo and Abhay face off in the interrogation room. She lays out the open-shut case that she has built against him but then one by one Abhay pokes holes in all of it and hands her a lead to follow if she wishes to know the truth. He gives her details regarding the missing person case filed by the parents of one of Sonam's media house colleagues. She is the girl whose body Sonam used to fake her death. Khushboo follows the lead and finds Sonam who tries to kill Khushboo but Khushboo ends up killing Sonam in self-defense. The case built against Abhay falls apart and he is let go. But as soon as he is freed he receives the bad news that his son has gone missing. Throughout the season we have shown Abhay attempting to mend their relationship but Saahil keeps spiraling into emotional oblivion. Before Abhay's arrest he promised Saahil that he will bring him back home but couldn't because of the circumstances. This final broken promise was the last straw, which leads Saahil to run away from home and end up in the hands of Mrtyu's cult. Mrtyu and his cult have been preparing for some end game, some big event throughout the season and now that event is taking place. 200 plus people will be congregating at this event with desires to free themselves from their problems, suffering, and misery but the only solution Mrtyu and his cult have is death. Abhay follows his son to the event and is apprehended by the cult. Mrtyu uses a concoction of psychedelics and Scalopomine to make anyone and everyone compliant to his wishes. He will use the same to make the crowd kill themselves and He uses the same to push Abhay into insanity so he kills himself too... The episode ends as Abhay stands in front of another Abhay intent on killing him | |||||
